Ingredients

How to make it

  • Combine eggs, yolks and sugar in a bowl and blend thoroughly with a whisk or electric beater for about 5 minutes.
  • Heat milk and cream in a medium saucepan; do not let boil, just “scorch” it until it is near-boiling hot.
  • Turn off heat.
  • Very slowly pour in 1 cup of the hot milk mixture into the egg mixture, beating rapidly with a whisk.
  • Once it is all beaten in, pour the egg mixture into the saucepan with the milk mixture while beating.
  • Heat mixture under medium low, stirring constantly, for a few more minutes or until the consistency is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon when dipped in.
  • Turn off heat.
  • Pour mixture into a bowl and cover with plastic wrap placed directly on the surface of the liquid.
  • Chill overnight or until completely cool.
  • Pour mixture into ice cream maker and follow machine’s directions for how long it should churn.
  • If using chocolate chunks, pour into the mixture during the last minute of churning.
  • Recommended: freeze for 2 hours before serving.
  • Store in an airtight container in the freezer.
  • When ready to eat, serve with a Sugar Cookie! :)
